    Synthesis of Binaphthyl Sulfonimides and Their Application in the Enantioselective Michael Addition of Ketones to Nitroalkenes

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 27 2010
    Shurong Ban
    Abstract Novel types of L -proline-based binaphthyl sulfonimides and sulfonamides were found to be efficient organocatalysts for the asymmetric Michael addition of ketones to nitroalkenes to provide optically active ,-nitroketone derivatives of synthetic and biological importance. After the fine optimization of solvents, temperature, and additive, good to excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities (71,96,%,ee, up to >99:1,dr) can be achieved. [source]


    Enantioselective Michael Addition of Aromatic Ketones to Nitroolefins Catalyzed by Bifunctional Thioureas and Mechanistic Insight

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2010
    Bai-Lin Li
    Abstract A highly enantioselective Michael reaction of aromatic ketones with nitroolefins was accomplished in the presence of a chiral bifunctional primary amine,thiourea catalyst and 4-nitrobenzoic acid as the co-catalyst; the corresponding adducts were obtained in excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99,%,ee) and yields (up to 98,%). The catalytic mechanism of the Michael reaction was confirmed through the ESI-MS detection of proposed reaction intermediates and the 1H NMR detection of hydrogen bonding between thiourea and the nitroolefins. DFT calculations showed that chiral moieties of the thiourea impacted the yields and enantioselectivities of the adducts remarkably, which corresponds to the observed experimental results. [source]

    2-[(Imidazolylthio)methyl]pyrrolidine as a Trifunctional Organocatalyst for the Highly Asymmetric Michael Addition of Ketones to Nitroolefins

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 6 2008
    Dan-Qian Xu
    Abstract The direct asymmetric Michael addition of ketones to nitroolefins catalyzed by 2-[(imidazol-2-ylthio)methyl]pyrrolidine, constructed from natural L -proline and imidazolylthio platforms, with salicylic acid as a co-catalyst has been developed to give the products in high yields (up to 95,%) and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99,% ee). The highly efficient catalytic performance may be attributed to the dual activation of the Michael substrates by the trifunctional organocatalysts and the co-catalyst salicylic acid, leading to the formation of a stable transition state complex through the synergic effect of hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interactions.

    A Versatile Solvent-Free "One-Pot" Route to Polymer Nanocomposites and the in situ Formation of Calcium Phosphate/Layered Silicate Hybrid Nanoparticles

    ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 11 2010
    Hans Weickmann
    Abstract Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), and polyurethane (PU) nanocomposites containing well-dispersed calcium phosphate/layered silicate hybrid nanoparticles were prepared in a versatile solvent-free "one-pot" process without requiring separate steps, such as organophilic modification, purification, drying, dispersing, and compounding, typical for many conventional organoclay nanocomposites. In this "one-pot" process, alkyl ammonium phosphates were added as swelling agents to a suspension of calcium/layered silicate in styrene, methyl methacrylate, or polyols prior to polymerization. Alkyl ammonium phosphates were prepared in situ by reacting phosphoric acid with an equivalent amount of alkyl amines such as stearyl amine (SA) or the corresponding ester- and methacrylate-functionalized tertiary alkyl amines, obtained via Michael Addition of SA with methyl acrylate or ethylene 2-methacryloxyethyl acrylate. Upon contact with the calcium bentonite suspension, the cation exchange of Ca2+ in the silicate interlayers for alkyl ammonium cations rendered the bentonite organophilic and enabled effective swelling in the monomer accompanied by intercalation and in situ precipitation of calcium phosphates. According to energy dispersive X-ray analysis, the calcium phosphate precipitated exclusively onto the surfaces of the bentonite nanoplatelets, thus forming easy-to-disperse calcium phosphate/layered silicate hybrid nanoparticles. Incorporation of 5,15,wt% of such hybrid nanoparticles into PMMA, PS, and PU afforded improved stiffness/toughness balances of the polymer nanocomposites. Functionalized alkyl ammonium phosphate addition enabled polymer attachment to the nanoparticle surfaces. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses of PU and PU-foam nanocomposites, prepared by dispersing hybrid nanoparticles in the polyols prior to isocyanate cure, revealed the formation of fully exfoliated hybrid nanoparticles.

    A New Autocatalytic Thioacetate-Enal Addition Reaction: A Michael Addition or Not?

    ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 11-12 2010
    Gennadiy Ilyashenko
    Abstract Rather than proceeding through a Michael-type or 1,4-addition, thioacetic acid adds across unsaturated aldehydes in an autocatalytic manner and involving a double exotherm, as demonstrated by both adiabatic and reaction calorimetry. NMR studies show that an intermediate acylthio-hemiacetal is involved and that the product continues to react competitively with thioacetic acid. [source]

    ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 6 2010
    Dieter Enders
    Abstract The organocatalytic Michael addition of various aldehydes to (2E,4E)-ethyl 5-nitropenta-2,4-dienoate has been achieved under the catalysis of diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether furnishing the products in good to excellent yields (61,94%) and high stereoselectivities (dr up to >98:2, ee=97 to >99%). Starting from these Michael adducts, 2,3,4-trisubstituted functionalized tetrahydrofurans are available in two steps by reduction of the aldehyde followed by an intramolecular oxa-Michael addition in good yields (54,76%) and stereoselectivities (dr up to >95:5, ee=97 to >99%).

    Yu-Hua Liao
    Abstract The first organocatalytic diastereo- and enantioselective Michael addition reaction of 4-substituted-pyrazolin-5-ones to nitroolefins has been developed with a chiral bifunctional thiourea as organocatalyst. A wide variety of desired multi-substituted pyrazolin-5-one derivatives with contiguous quaternary and tertiary stereocenters are smoothly obtained in very good yields (up to 98%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to>99% ee) and acceptable diastereoselectivities (up to 80:20). This experimentally simple process facilitates the access to various enantioenriched, multiply substituted pyrazolin-5-one derivatives, potential biologically active molecules, starting from readily available starting materials.

    Abstract Several novel prolylprolinol catalysts have been designed and synthesized. This type of compound showed high catalytic efficiency on promoting the direct addition of unmodified aldehydes to nitroalkenes. Among the catalysts surveyed, the least bulky member (8d) exhibited the best performance on both efficiency and stereoselectivity, providing the products with up to 97% ee value with 1.5,5,mol% catalyst loading. Additionally, computational studies of the transition state have been conducted to explain the high diastereo- and enantioselectivity. [source]

    A New Stereoselective Synthesis of Cyclopropanes Containing Quaternary Stereocentres via Organocatalytic Michael Addition to Vinyl Selenones

    ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 11-12 2009
    Francesca Marini
    Abstract A novel organocatalytic method for the stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted cyclopropanes is reported. The Michael adducts, generated through the addition of ,-substituted cyanoacetates to easily accessible vinyl selenones catalyzed by a bifunctional ureidic catalyst, smoothly cyclize by intramolecular alkylation induced by a de-ethoxycarbonylation process. The one-pot sequence generates cyclopropanes bearing adjacent tertiary and quaternary stereocentres as single Z -isomers in moderate to high yields and good enantiomeric excesses. [source]
